The Last of 7 Uranus-Pluto Squares Occurred this Same Week

March 20th, 2015 is not only the first day of Spring, it is also the day of an extraordinary combination of celestial and astrological events. A Full Solar Eclipse, Supermoon and Gudhi Padva will each occur this Friday, 3/20/2015. Even before these events take place tomorrow, this week has already seen the last of seven powerful Uranus-Pluto Squares which peaked on Monday, March 16th.

This highly unusual convergence of intense luminary energy will continue until the third consecutive Blood Moon in a cycle of four occurs on Saturday, April 4th. Also known as a Full Lunar Eclipse, this Blood Moon punctuates an unparalleled period of profound and fundamental transformation. However, it is critical to understand that this particular day — March 20th — is merely a trigger point for the years of 2015 … and 2016*. The trigger is being pulled now which will initiate a multi-year process of massive and unprecedented change. The biggest changes will be political and governmental, economic and financial, social and religious in nature … throughout every nation on Earth.

The Supermoon on March 20th, it should be pointed out, is a new moon not a full moon. As such it will exert more influence than usual over our planetary body, just as the Earth will affect the new moon more than normal. The very first phase of the New Moon is completely invisible since the moon is on the same side of the earth as the sun. “The face of the Moon that can be seen from the Earth is no longer illuminated by the Sun’s rays — as only the opposing side is facing the Sun. As a result, it is invisible in the Earth’s sky.”

*Basically the stage is being set during 2015 for “The Greatest Show on Earth” that will actually take place in 2016, which happens to be the Chinese Year of the Fire Monkey. Nevertheless, 2015 promises to provide its own series of spectacles which are a part of the necessary setup. The September/October time frame will likely present a captivating ‘trailer’ to the highly anticipated 2016 spectacular. The key dates marking the Shemitah Jubilee, in particular, offer an accurate timing of things to come. Accordingly, the economic and financial realms, headquartered in New York City and the City of London, will be the site of the opening acts of this Greatest Show — EVER — on Earth. ______________________________________________________________

A Cycle Of Seven Uranus-Pluto Squares Has Just Completed

Consider then the following context in which this “First Day of Spring” will unfold in 2015. This whole week is heavily influenced by the very last Uranus-Pluto Square of a very powerful cycle of 7 squares. Here’s how Astrostyle.com describes this ‘calm before the storm‘:

The same Astrostyle.com article goes on to explain what many just witnessed by watching Lady Gaga sing a Sound Of Music Tribute at this year’s Oscars.

Full Solar Eclipse Will Cast A Broad Shadow Across A Deeply Troubled Part Of The World

That was just the backdrop to this rapidly unfolding planetary drama. There is also a Full Solar Eclipse taking place on March 20th as well as a Full Lunar Eclipse (Blood Moon) on April 4th. It is the swath of Planet Earth which will see tomorrow’s solar eclipse which is most significant. What follows is a map of the visible eclipse area highlighted according to the varying degrees of visibility.

It is fairly easy to see that Europe, Russia, the Middle East, Central Asia, and Northern Africa will all be deeply affected by the daytime shadow cast by this full solar eclipse. Each of those areas has been the location of civilian uprisings and political protests, religious feuds and racial tensions, and/or outright war and military conflicts for quite some time. Whenever the light of the sun is occluded by another luminary, it is considered an ill-omen of sorts. For that very reason eclipses — both full and partial — are NOT viewed by astrologers as auspicious events. They are to be respected and appropriately propitiated so as to alleviate any negative effects that might manifest.

This Supermoon Occurs With The First New Moon Of Spring

“A Supermoon is a coincidence of a full moon or a new moon with the closest approach to the Earth on its orbit, resulting in the largest apparent size from view. This phenomenon causes both oceanic and crustal tides which risks increased earthquakes and volcanic activities.”[1]

Most are not aware that when there are Earth movements of this nature (earthquakes and volcanoes), they reflect a tremendous release of energies taking place. Human populations everywhere can experience varying degrees of release as a result. Pent-up emotional energy can be spontaneously discharged much as a solar flare reflects a corneal mass ejection, or a volcano blows its top. Because the Supermoon is so close to the Earth, both the mind and emotions can be supercharged as well. The Moon has a very powerful influence over both, as it does over the tidal flows of the oceans, among other of Earth’s vital signs.

The crucial point here is that the Supermoon is occurring within the same day as a Full Solar Eclipse. The effects of the interaction of these 2 powerful astrophysical events is the real unknown since they rarely happen simultaneously. One thing can be said, however, and that is that there is virtually always an amplification of energies as each event feeds off the other. Hence, there is likely to be a discernible intensification of effects of both eclipse and supermoon on March 20th and beyond.

Gudhi Padva: Celebrated as one of the Holiest Holidays of the Hindu Calendar

Gudhi Padva (pronounced Gudi Padwa) “is celebrated on the first day of the Chaitra month to mark the beginning of the New year according to the lunisolar Hindu calendar.“[2] In the sacred lore of India, this day represents the day that Lord Brahma, the Creator God, created the universe. It therefore marks the first day of the Satya Yuga, also known as the Golden Age.

Because it indicates the beginning of the Age of Truth, it represents the particularly auspicious first new moon of Spring. Gudhi Padwa also celebrates the return of Lord Rama after the defeat of the demon Ravana. Tethered as it is in 2015 to these other significant March 20th events gives one the impression that a great reversal of fortune (and fate) might be in store for the people of Planet Earth (both the 1% and 99% respectively).

In the Sanskrit epic poem known as the Ramayana, Ravana was the all-powerful ten-headed demon who terrorized the Earth realm. Each head represented a different evil trait which Ravana manifested to the extreme. When all 10 vices are embodied in a single entity, as they can also be exhibited by a tyrannical ruling cabal or nation, they draw the attention of the Lord. In this way Lord Rama incarnated as a response to the pleas from those oppressed by the peerless earthly terrorist, Ravana. Hence, there was great cause for celebration in the wake of Lord Rama’s victory over such a formidable and fearsome foe.

Lord Rama’s avaricious adversary was known for being consumed by the ten negative appetites as shown in the following list[3]. Each of these tendencies individually, when present to a high degree, is enough to ruin a person’s life, reverse the good fortune of a family or adversely affect the destiny of a nation. Ergo, there is both a micro and macrocosmic understanding which ought to be gleaned from the universally didactic tale of the Ramayana.

Lord Rama himself was well known to be the paragon of dharma (righteousness) through his conquering of these 10 inner enemies. By defeating the demon king Ravana, he was also successful at subduing the kingdom that was known for its worship of the same debilitating weaknesses of human character. Because of his unswerving commitment to righteous rule, Lord Rama has been honored ever since as the greatest and most noble king of his era.

What does the glorification of an ancient king of India have to do with 2015 and beyond?

The world community of nations has never been so starved for high integrity leadership. As we move deeper into the twilight period of the Kali Yuga, the prevailing national leadership is anything but noble or virtuous. Perhaps the oncoming upheaval is divinely ordained to create a whole new order that will accommodate a truly upright and selfless generation of leaders. Only through the complete expulsion of the current crop of “Ravanas” is there any hope for the planetary civilization.

Toward that end, it has long been prophesied that the Piscean Age would close with quite a bang. As the Age of Aquarius ensures that more egalitarian and just societies manifest everywhere, there will soon come a time for a complete break with the past. That can only be accomplished by a series of paradigm-busting events which deeply affect every aspect of the current civilization.

All of the events explained thus far are actually occurring in preparation for the upcoming Year of the Shemitah Jubilee which begins in September of 2015. For it is only through the extraordinary leveling that takes place during this historic jubilee that the global stage can be properly reset. Because the rich and powerful nations of the West have come to so dominate the world, they share a major responsibility during this phase of unavoidable collapse and catharsis.

The Judeo-Anglo-American power structure, in particular, bears an inordinate amount of burden in this unfolding scenario. Whereas the Global Economic & Financial Control Matrix has been painstakingly hardwired throughout the world over many decades, it will naturally fall to those Western powers to drop the curtain, once and for all. Just as 9/11 was but an economic and financial omen for those truly complicit nations, it also served as a ‘trailer’ for the soon to be released Greatest Show On Earth.

There should be no underestimating the far-reaching and extensive impact of the Shemitah, especially the upcoming 70th Shemitah Jubilee. It not only represents the end of a 3500-year cycle with awesome implications, the 7-year Shemitah cycle has already proven to be an unrivaled tool of prediction. Particularly within the worldwide financial arena and economic sector has the Shemitah year frequently shown itself to be a time of dramatic happenings and radical changes.

PLUTO careens through CAPRICORN from 2008 until 2024

The following excerpt well describes what this ever-intensifying transit — Pluto in Capricorn — will produce in the affairs of men (and women, but it’s a patriarchal society so those bad boys are really gonna get it!).

Even the stars portend striking parallels between the American Revolution of 1776 and the upcoming USA Revolution of 2016. Every knowledgeable astrologer will agree that the 1770s saw the planet Pluto cruising through Capricorn just as it has been since 2008. This particular transit only occurs once every 245 years and does not bode well for those who populate the establishment. Especially those who occupy the greatest positions of power throughout government, the military, law enforcement, and the like, will be seriously challenged. Ultimately, the entire power structure of American society will find itself under tremendous assault and inordinate stress, as it should be.[4]

“Uranus And Neptune Transits Will Also Exert Heavy Influences During 2016”

Here’s another poignant excerpt from the same essay which addresses two other long term transits that significantly affect these times — Uranus in Aries and Neptune in Pisces.

For the armchair astrologers among us there are a couple of other heavy duty transits occurring throughout this intensely revolutionary period. As the planet Uranus continues to rampage through Aries until 2018, Neptune will be plunging through Pisces through 2025. Both of these planetary passages will serve to greatly amplify the ongoing crescendo of Pluto in Capricorn. In both instances, these heightening astrological influences will significantly contribute to the hallmark of 2016 – CHANGE … profound and fundamental change![4]

“Saturn Enters Sagittarius: The Truth Shall Set You Free”

Lastly, there is one more astrological dynamic which will exert great influence over the affairs of the USA and therefore over the entire world. As follows:

Speaking about change, perhaps the most consequential of all these evolving heavenly configurations is that the planet Saturn will be in Sagittarius for much of 2015, 2016 and most of 2017. The Sagittarian traits of truth-seeking and truth-speaking will literally overwhelm the political, economic and social arenas throughout the USA. As each person takes back their power, stands in their own truth, and then speaks truth to power, the nation has the potential to really change … overnight!

This particular transit, occurring simultaneously with those previously mentioned, guarantees that 2016 will shape up to be the most tumultuous, tempestuous and turbulent year of the new millennium. This rapidly developing state of affairs ought to be considered the first phase of the inevitable karmic outworking of the dramatic destiny of the USA. It will be very similar to, yet different from, the July 4, 1776 trigger point which saw the signing of the Declaration of Independence and subsequent American Revolutionary War.[4]

Conclusion

In light of the ever-emerging reality delineated in this essay, the next two years will undoubtedly be critical toward the inevitable metamorphosis of the planet and the people. The signs are now everywhere. Omens abound both in the heavens and on Earth. Who does not feel the electricity of change and challenge in the air? March Madness has never been so intense just as Spring fever has never been so palpable and pervasive. Truly, the long-awaited Shift of the Ages is right around the cosmic corner.

The EQUINOX is here on March 20th 2015 and a powerful portal is opening up with a TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE and New Moon in Pisces on the same day!

Like our ancestors before us, we are being called to pause with reverence and tune in to the greater cosmic cycles that we are a part of.

Return, return, return…and enter the stillness through meditation, prayer or ceremony offering gratitude for the gift of Life and All that Is.

Pisces energy encourages us to dream and vision what we can contribute to create the world we wish to inhabit.

From simple acts of kindness, beginning with the Self, the revolution will birth forth from within each of us. For as we heal, we help others heal. As we shift our vibrations, we contribute in unseen ways to uplifting the energetic web that connects us all.

Here are the MYSTIC MAMMA Astral Insights from our beloved featured astrologers sharing their illuminating wisdom.

An incredible time of our collective evolution is about to come to into culmination. The after-effects of the 7th Pluto Uranus Square planetary alignment will bring to humanity a state of awareness that will create a shift in perspective of a magnitude that has never been experienced in our recorded history. In this article I would like to share with you some personal insight into this alignment, its history, and where I believe we all, as a collective consciousness, will be heading.

The first of the seven Pluto Square Uranus alignments took place in 2012 and since then have progressively reflected to us the lifting veils of our perception of reality – the ongoing shifting of our collective consciousness. Now, as the 7th and final Pluto Uranus Square takes place for us on the 16th of March 2015, these two planets will be making their final tension angle with each other at 15’17” of Capricorn/Aries. To gain some perspective into this very powerful and important alignment I would like to start sharing with you the point of origin and what it meant for us.

The vibrational pattern of the awakened soul is here. Our job going forward is to anchor it into the collective consciousness. Who is with me?

Pluto Uranus Square – Awaken Humanity!

2012 ~ The Beginning

On the 26th June 2012, we experienced the first Pluto (evolution) Uranus (de-conditioning) Square which set in motion what was to be very transformative journey for humanity. Think back to that time in your life. Did your perspective and view on life shift in any way? An internal clock started ticking and brought to the surface all these interesting emotions. This aspect for humanity symbolizes the progressive realization of the true essence and embodiment of what we are: multi-dimensional beings, incarnating in human form to experience the beautiful magnitude of Life.

This new understanding brought with it the need to cleanse and clear the collective distortions that we carry within us. As I mentioned, we are returning back home to what we actually are, but we have also had to move through the energetic debris we have personally and collectively gathered.

2013/2014 ~ In the thick of things

As we moved into the next phase of this process during 2013 and 2014, we began experiencing, in a very turbulent and bumpy way, the removal of many lifetimes of spiritual truths and human conditioning that separate us from our true essence and actual nature. We humans, as a collective, have spent thousands of years in an increasingly disempowered state. This is a natural cycle resembling the night cycle we know on Earth, but on a much greater level. We have been asleep, so to speak. But now we are waking up, and remembering who we are.

In 2013 we experienced many energetic shifts that caused us to confront the many deceptions that we have been fed, mostly from external sources with a very dangerous agenda. Many of us realized that our lives did not reflect our true nature, and that the distortions we had previously accepted as ‘truth’ served only to confine the human spirit, dull our perception and limit our experience of Life. Those distortions (and all the emotions they bring) needed to be cleared to make space for us to then start moving in a new direction — one that would lead to the progressive re-empowerment of humanity and reconnection to our true nature and beauty.

On the 23rd of April 2014, a very significant alignment took place. The Cardinal Grand Cross. The 4 Cardinal signs reflect the 4 elements: Air, Fire, Water and Earth. Together, the Cardinal energy reflects instinctual change. A perfect alignment of planets were formed in the Cardinal signs of the Zodiac, beautifully signifying what we needed to do as we looked to integrate the new self, changing and moving in new directions. For us, this marked the shift from involution (breaking down) of our old paradigms here on Earth to evolution, the rebuilding of the new paradigms that support a balanced and harmonic relationship with Mother Nature.

Reflect back on your life then and compare it to now. Do you see the difference?

During 2014, the 5th and 6th Pluto Square Uranus alignments intensified this process of evolution and demanded that we see and acknowledge our collective pain; that our unsustainable way of life is a direct result of our separation from our own true essence. So, in order to heal the world we began to heal ourselves and our connection to Mother Earth. This healing happens on many levels; emotional, physical and mental. It has been part of the natural process to nurture our physical bodies in a natural way and to clear chemicals and non-organic based materials from our environment; to connect deeper to ourselves allow the emotional body to release all emotional debris that are distorting our view of ourselves and others; and strengthen our connection to our heart and our inner child and quieten the mind.

2015 ~ The Final Shift

With this final alignment on the 16/17th of March 2015, we are being asked to become a living embodiment of what we have awakened to over the last two and a half years. The change you wish to see in the world begins from within but must at some point be reflected outwards in order for us to actually see that change.

Those who continue seeking to see the progression of our collective awakening powered from the outside will be met with the past, as our outer world is a reflection of what and who we were and not what we are now. Energetically, we have crossed into new uncharted territory that is not yet reflected by the constructs of our outer world, and the future may seem unsure as we are literally paving the way before us as we break new ground. We must bravely walk the new direction and allow our hearts to guide us.

Embrace your essence and allow a sense of sovereignty to guide your actions. Free yourself from the limitations of self-doubt and the disempowering beliefs created by fear-based propaganda. Find the perfect harmony available when you disconnect from the matrix and re-connect with Source.

Right now, it is up to us to create the world we want to live in. Those of you reading this are the change! You are the pioneers of a new paradigm! It can be an isolating experience, but really, it is impossible for the totality of the collective consciousness to awaken at once. The madness that would be be unleashed would be all too much. Insanity would reign! So remember…

Humanity is at one of the most important times in its linear timeline. You are a soul that is a living personification of the changes that will bring about the Shift in the collective. Your role is to simply listen to what your heart is guiding you to do and to anchor the truth of your essence into every aspect of your being. To return to your natural state.

Pluto-Uranus Square, March 16, 2015

: the study of how the positions of the stars and movements of the planets have a supposed influence on events and on the lives and behavior of people.

– Merriam-Webster Dictionary

A recent Norwegian study, found that humans born during solar minimums (periods of lesser Sun activity) live 5 years more than people born during solar periods of higher activity.

The researchers examined the lives of 8,600 people born in between the years of 1676 to 1878 and they noticed this reoccurring trend. They then established that higher Sun rays affected the amino acids during higher periods of energy – therefore damaging the acids more so than the calm, to say for lack of a better term. Of course, astrology has not been given more credence in light of this.

Astrology claims that stars and movements of the planets have a supposed influence on events and on the lives and behavior of people, as stated in the definition above.

Key word: influence – since the Sun affects us it offers more insight into the term, “astrology.” But wait a second, there’s more to this topic that must be considered. A real science to this.

Let’s get this clear, water has a memory. Some in mainstream “science” wish to “debate” this “theory,” one cause for this is because if they accept this, they must also accept homeopathic healing. Homeopathy is the medicine of using water to retain the information of plant parts – when this is ingested it balances the energy in your body. Allegedly, I’ve never had it done myself, but they do not believe this because they cannot see plant particles by the time the water is ready. “It can’t work, there isn’t any plant particles left!” Oh, but there is. It was scientifically proven several years ago.

The peer-reviewed scientific journal Nature published a study in 1988 detailing the science of water memory. Some have dismissed this study and that is alright. One who has dismissed it is a scientist who brushed off a new study, that I will detail in a moment. He said he “looked really hard” to find the citations for the said study and found “nothing.” However, some of his commenters found data within a two minute window, including a book for the public to read that describes the experiments in detail.

In 2012 the Aerospace Institute of the University of Stuttgart, Germany found that water retains information. They created technology that enables them to photograph the physical structure of water.

In 2004 the researchers conducted an interesting experiment. They instructed four students to retrieve water from the same source, then drop a row of four droplets each, per student. The water “remembered” each students’ unique “imprint” seamlessly:

Since the human body (which has blood in it) is 50-70% water this is no surprise. Lets take this a bit further and expand this theme shall we? Russian scientist Dr. Peter Gariaev lead a research group into the theme that DNA can affect its surroundings. That DNA itself has a memory, or an information pattern that can be memorized by the environment and perhaps even manipulated. Peter Gariaev showed through his experiments that DNA and sound waves correspond with one another. Gariaev also alleges that DNA itself not only possesses its own memory but also an awareness of its own surroundings and its own consciousness – a little similar to the water theme huh?

Scientist Harry Bigelsen found that human blood memorizes all illness throughout the body. So if you have a broken leg, Bigelsen can use what he calls Symplast to “photograph” your blood and establish an illness far more accurately and faster than any method today. Any method propped by mainstream medicine that is. He calls it holographic blood:

Nobel peace prize winner Luc Montagnier found that DNA can imprint on its environment. Once the DNA was removed during the experiments it could still be detected by his instruments. He later filed a patent for technology that can more accurately detect “phantom DNA” as he calls it.

DNA and water can be affected by sound, their very physical makeup can be altered and rewritten via sound and energy and it has its own memory. It is also a two way street, in terms of it also imprinting on the environment. Just like an interactive game, you give the gave input and it will give it back to you. What this means we have a relationship with reality that we never fully understood the significance of. Now lets remember that thoughts have their own energy and can be measured as well. What power do our own thoughts have when we can reprogram our own DNA?? Hey, while we’re at it – words are sounds too aren’t they? The implications for this understanding have opened an entirely new view of the universe and us as humanity. I feel this must be explored deeper. It is no surprise therefore, that studies are showing phototherapy (using light to heal the body) make teeth heal faster, cure ulcers and a multitude of other illness. Big Pharma never told you about that one did they?

We interact with reality in a far more fluid way than we ever understood before. But hey, lets wrap this up with astrology.

Whenever the sun enters very high levels of activity it affects life on this planet, so when it was publicly stated that the Sun and the Earth have magnetic portals that connect the two this is no surprise. Scientists also didn’t believe this was “possible” until recently, but let’s remember: Just because they don’t believe it’s true doesn’t mean that it isn’t still true.

It has been documented over and over again that the number of sunspots in coherence with this planet, will relate to the number of historical events on this planet. We’re talking about revolutions, renaissance – evolution. Joe Martino, creator of this amazing website performed a Ted Talk and goes into detail about this subject. I highly recommend watching this. The Global Coherence Initiative has heavily documented this and other phenomena and I highly recommend reviewing this information and creating your own conclusion. They also found that the sun can give us information input! We can “learn” from the Sun!

It is no secret that our moon affects human behavior, including increasing murder and psychotic action amongst the population during full moon cycles. British police departments even add more officers during shifts that occur with the full moon, including eclipses. Hence the term: lunatic = lunar-tic.

Here is where we wrap this baby up and send it home. We have understood the theme: sound and energy affect us on a whole new level we never understood before. It can affect our very genetic structure, even enhancing our consciousness via sound. Guess what? As it turns out, he Sun emits sound.

Mythologically, the planet Saturn has been worshiped as the God of time, death, rape, institutions, authority and an assortment of other connotations similar to this. Saturn also has an odd and almost haunting sound:

Saturn also gives off 2.5 times more heat than it receives from the Sun, NASA also recently discovered a super giant Saturn ring that swallows this planet. This giant of a planet emits more energy than it receives, those who know David Icke and his work, understand he alleges Saturn is actually a brown dwarf star. Perhaps he’s not too far off?

What does this mean? I don’t really know, but I do know that there is something happening here. There is a relationship between heavenly bodies and us that is very significant. This is a new science, a new frontier that will be explored and I am convinced there will be many many new discoveries that will benefit us as a whole. Take note, not all of my details may be correct, but it is the theme that is important. I sincerely hope I offered a new perspective into your life that you found wholesome and true. If this information felt right to you, follow it. It may bring you to some interesting places. As always, thank you so much for reading.

A Post Script to Yesterday’s Astrology Status

Some simple messages, often the most important ones, I fear, get lost in the effort to present an overview. So I would like to add this relatively brief post script to yesterday’s status (see below). It gets closer and more directly to my core astrology message for the times ahead.

Let me dispense with all the usual cautions, provisos, qualifications and disclaimers and get right to it – all those things one feels obliged to say so that one can’t be accused of being overly pessimistic or overly optimistic, etc.

This is the message I don’t want to get lost.

Things are going to stop getting progressively worse. At some deep level, they are going to start getting progressively better, despite all surface appearances to the contrary. They already have. Those deeply destabilizing forces with which we have been dealing for nearly a decade and which have inflicted so much hardship and loss are rapidly abating.

Our efforts to heal and recover and to get our lives in order will no longer be so consistently and persistently undermined or upended by worsening turmoil.

We are in the process of returning to average levels of life difficulty. We are also about to begin benefiting from the efforts of those many people who never stop working to improve our lives.

As you lay there going to sleep at night or gathering your courage and determination before rising, you should remind yourself that things are going to stop getting worse and start getting better. They already are.

And, oh, yes. You all have to get up everyday and go do your part to make this work.

That is what I want to be the take away message from yesterday’s astrology post.

A Big Energy Shift Ahead

The Long Term Perspective

September’s Composite Chart

A worldview, or a belief system, is a carefully chosen set of ideas that explains who we are, how the world works and how we can best fit into it.

There are numerous religious worldviews. There is a single, more unified and consistent scientific worldview. There are numerous political worldviews, etc., Many mix and match worldviews. Almost everyone has a worldview, or belief system, and relies on it to navigate their life.

In addition to everything else they did, the last 6 or 7 years adversely affected our worldview. So much changed so dramatically, most worldviews are now badly out of date and generally inadequate to our present needs.

We cannot single-handedly create – or update – a worldview. Creating, maintaining and changing worldviews is a complex group phenomenon. And the planetary help we would need to accomplish such a group upgrade is just around the corner.

The bottom line is that we’re all standing at a crucial life crossroad without a road map. The good news is that, although our worldviews are still in flux, the planets are are about to bring them into much closer alignment with reality.

Neptune and Saturn are absolutely crucial to the birth, growth and evolution of ideas, including the ideas that make up our worldviews. Neptune makes ideas flexible and expansive. Saturn keeps ideas logical.

Saturn and Neptune often work at cross purposes, but between them, they help us keep our ideas about the world real, relevant and reasonable.

Presently, Neptune is in Pisces. Saturn will soon be in Sagittarius (December 2014). As Saturn moves into Sagittarius, we approach a pivotal moment in the evolution of the ideas that largely determine the nature of our world, the flow of events, and guide our lives.

Saturn and Neptune will be in broad square relationship from the moment Saturn enters Sagittarius. There will be three exact Saturn/Neptune squares between November 2015 and September 2016.

As Saturn squares Neptune, rigid, fixed ideas will become more flexible; unrealistic, inaccurate ideas will become more realistic and accurate. We will take more time to arrive at an opinion, on the one hand, and be less likely to cling to outdated opinions on the other.

Our ideas will tend to mesh slowly into a more solid, stable and reliable picture of the world. This will happen on a large enough scale to bring all our idea, and our worldviews into better alignment with reality globally.

This process might be of little help to those with grossly unreasonable, irrational worldviews. But for those whose worldviews are basically reasonable and just need an upgrade, these four squares will be a blessing. Their worldview will come into closer alignment with the truth of our situation and, thus, become more empowering and effective.

It should also be noted that the coming Saturn/Neptune square marks a major energetic shift, away from the strictly physical and material world to the mental, emotional and spiritual realms.

September’s Chart

I know this talk of worldviews and their effect on our lives can seem impersonal and abstract. But September’s composite chart gives us an idea of just how personal and concrete the transformation of a worldview can be.

I view September’s chart as both preparation for and a preview of what we can expect as Saturn moves into square relation with Neptune. It will initiate a thorough and fairly rigorous review of all the ideas we use to understand our lives.

September will show us how such a process looks and feels on the micro- and macro- levels. (The reassuring bits come at the end.)

September’s T-Square

The most important and indicative aspect in September’s chart, in my opinion, is a T-Square. This T-Square involves the Moon’s Nodes, Mercury, Uranus and Pluto, Capricorn, Pisces and Leo, and the 2nd, 5th and 8th houses.

In effect, it involves all the major spiritual evolutionary forces in the chart. It will affect the totality of our finances and all of our personal relationships – romantic, social, professional and otherwise. This T-Square leaves very little untouched.

The T-Square’s Effects on the Macro-Level

On the macro-level, the real battle in September will be between people fighting to preserve the gross inequality of the old status quo (Uranus conjunct the South Node in the 8th) and those committed to genuine economic reform (Mercury conjunct the North Node in the 2nd).

The debate could be strident, rancorous and confusing. At bottom, though, the forces of spiritual evolution (North Node), will support those fighting for genuine change, as proposed by the grassroots. False arguments in support of injustice and inequality will finally be understood to be untrue.

September’s Relationship Yod

The Yod in September’s chart indicates that we could all experience this confusion and conflict in an intense and deeply personal way. The mental and emotional turbulence of August is probably not over.

The Yod involves Pluto, Chiron and Jupiter, the 5th, 7th and 12th houses, and Capricorn, Pisces and Leo, respectively.

Generally, this Yod will produce persistent, rapid, see-saw tensions over spiritual, moral, social, cultural and relationship issues in general and romantic issues in particular. These tensions will push us persistently and repeatedly to spiritualize all our relationships.

It could also compel us to modify or end relationships that do not work for us on a spiritual level. Alternatively, the Yod will push us to change relationships so that they do support our efforts to spiritualize our lives.

If you remember back in July, we embarked on a Triple Supermoon experience. The Full Harvest Moon coming up on September 8, 2014 is the third one of the Trinity. The previous two Supermoons occurred on July 12 and August 10.

The Supermoon is a beautiful sight to behold and it also holds powerful energy for emotional clearing. This moon in particular has healing qualities. Scroll down for some information on this, as well a look ahead at the exciting month of October. In October we have an important Eclipse Portal that is cradled within a Mercury Retrograde cycle.

SUPERMOON 3

On September 8, 2014 at 9:38 pm EDT we have the Full Moon with the Sun in Virgo and the Moon in Pisces (16°19′ of each sign).

This Full Moon happens to be a Supermoon. It is the third of three Supermoons in a row this summer: The other two Supermoons occurred on July 12, 2014 and August 10, 2014.

A Supermoon occurs when the Moon is closer to earth than in other months. At these times, the Full Moon can appear as much as 14% larger in the sky and 30% brighter to our eyes than at minimum size and brightness. The visual impact is stunning. Look up!

An extra-close New or Full Moon causes higher-than-usual TIDES. At those times, EarthSky writes:

Our planet is stretched slightly, along a line between the Earth and moon. The body of the Earth is fairly rigid, so it does not stretch much, but the oceans are much more easily moved. Thus the effect piles up water on both side of Earth, and these piles of water – created by the differential gravitational effect – are the tides.

We are hooked into the primal tides of this planet. Our blood and the 77% water within our bodies match the swaying, stretching and pulling of the sea. Full Moons trigger emotions. Supermoons trigger Super emotions. Like the ocean, we are easily moved. Emotions that have ‘piled up’ inside of us may burst out and flood our consciousness.

There is perhaps one particular ‘issue’, emotional turbulence, or difficulty in your life that has played out since July. The roots of this issue go back to repressed fears that were revealed to you (maybe shockingly) in April. This third Supermoon is when this content can be jettisoned into the watery tides.

If you journal, check back to April, July and August. Is there a common thread? Or, simply sit quietly and/or meditate and allow your inner consciousness to show you what is ready for release. This Supermoon can be soothing (Pisces and Virgo are compassionate). The release doesn’t have to be painful. Try to be near water at the time of this Supermoon. Allow the past to wash away. Give it to the ocean.

SUPER HEALING & HARVEST MOON

The September 8 Supermoon is also the Harvest Moon, which happens every year at this time. The Harvest Moon is always the Full Moon nearest to the beginning of Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere (i.e. the Autumn Equinox).

The time is ripe. You are harvesting. You are reaping the benefits, acknowledging your new knowledge and wisdom, and celebrating the success, creative expression and spiritual growth that you have created since March. This process will continue up through the Autumn Equinox which occurs on September 23.

You are winnowing. What to let go, what to keep, what to tweak, what to elaborate upon in the next growing cycle. Here, the REVIEW concerns your current goals and how you have achieved them this year. Which projects worked, which didn’t? Did any obstacles impede your path? Who were your allies? How do you feel about your progress? Reminder: be compassionate with yourself!

This Full Harvest Supermoon is also a bringer of HEALING energies. This is because the Moon is in intimate contact with the asteroid Chiron, a powerful shamanic energy that holds the codes for healing our deepest wounds.

You can open up to healing. How? Where to begin? Here’s a clue for all of us: “Pay close attention to who and what stirs up your anger because that’s where the seeds of the personal change you’ve been resisting can be found.” – quote from Guiding Light Astrology

This is a good time to seek out healing practitioners or to practice self-healing. The heightened emotions triggered by the Supermoon will facilitate healing activations through the many modalities available to us: massage, reiki, acupuncture, chiropractic, and any other form of body work.

LOOKING AHEAD: OCTOBER

Things are beginning to heat up (and will stay that way through the end of the year, with a bit of a breather in November). The heat is on because, as the Supermoon Triad closes we move into an ECLIPSE PORTAL with the next Full Moon on October 8, 2014. This Full Moon, though not a Supermoon, is the second of four Total Lunar Eclipses – i.e. a Tetrad series which began in April 2014 and continues through September 2015.

Yesterday I was accused of failing myself and my mission over the reimbursement issue. I want to make it clear: the Ambassador offered more than once to handle it with his own funds; and I kept on saying that it was up to The Family. He told me again yesterday - yes we talked briefly - that I do not understand how things work in Hong Kong. He's right; I have no idea. I do, however, resent the allegations by a certain individual that I somehow failed. I have and will continue to stand up for principles that I see as necessary to liberate humanity from the fraud, extortion and slavery of the current system. As long as that system goes unchallenged, we all fail. I am convinced the Ambassador is fighting for us. I am also convinced that it is the will of God for humanity to be liberated from the beast. If I can help any of the powers that hold our assets in trust to see the principles that must be applied, I will succeed. I believe some are hearing me; and I will never giver up.

The following article appeared on Marina Macario’s website, Darkstar Astrology and in conjunction with Pluto in Capricorn, REALLY big changes are ahead!

The New Moon on August 25 2014 is at 2º Virgo and falls within 2.5º of the royal star of Regulus, the heart of the Lion. This is significant because Regulus entered tropical Virgo from Leo on November 28th 2011*. This is the first New Moon to hit Regulus since it changed signs. So I would hope to see this moon reflecting back to us something of what this huge astrological event means for the collective. The transition makes me think of the Egyptian Sphinx, which has the head of a goddess and body of a Lion.

“When the nature of the world is revealed, then the mystery of the Sphinx will no longer exist.”
~ Alice Bailey [1]

A google search on the web will take you to some excellent articles to what other astrologers who are making the connection of Regulus’s entry into Virgo with the return of the goddess.

“We stand at this very moment on the threshold of a new age: the age of Regulus In Virgo. The Age Of The Common Woman. Looking back about two thousand years ago, we see that sometime around the time when Regulus entered Leo, the sign from which it is now departing, Julius Caesar was being born. As were the grandparents of Jesus Christ. No one would have ever been able to predict the evolutionary story that would unfold from those events. Just think of it. Julius Caesar and Christ’s little old Jewish Gramma, who could think they would end up together and evolve the union of the Roman Empire and Judaism into the Roman Catholic Church!”
~ Michael Lutin

Michael ends the article with the story of the Pope opening the letters given to him by the children of Fatima from the Virgin Mary.

“It was said that when the Pope opened the last one, he fainted. And never revealed the contents to the world. It’s time now…. Wouldn’t you like to know what was in that letter? “Per corem Leonis in signo virginis in sororitatem steallarum te salvamus” which, roughly translated, means, “Regulus is in Virgo so move over, Boys. The Patriarchy is fucked.”

Regulus is one of the 4 archangel stars and the largest that actually falls on the ecliptic, the Suns path.

“Early English astrologers made it a portent of glory, riches, and power to all born under its influence” and it is generally considered fortunate, courageous, successful and all those great qualities associated with the sunsign Leo. But Regulus has its negative side. “It gives violence, destructiveness, military honor of short duration, with ultimate failure, imprisonment, violent death.”

Bernadette Brady associates Regulus with downfall which may be just anticipating its fall from grace.

“With Regulus about to move into Virgo, it seems so appropriate and timely as we consider a world ruled by powerful elites and societies ruled by money and power. Now we have Regulus move into the sign of service, resourcefulness, technology, skill and duty, as we consider waste, global resources, efficiency and how to get things working better. This shift seems timely to say the least. We are all called to a service of some kind, helping to shape a better world.”
~ C*I*A

REGULUS INTO VIRGO

For approximately the last 600 years or so Regulus has been in Leo decan 3 which is ruled by Mars in both Chaldean and triplicity rulership. This makes it doubly aggressive and only amplifies Regulus’s conquering and pillaging side further. I decided to use the year 2000 positions of Regulus because most people reading my blog are going to be of the generation of Regulus in Leo (For now!) so my appraisal of Leo decan 2 includes the influence of Regulus.

“They are always right, their rule is absolute, any challenge to their authority is seen as betrayal. Loyality, loyality and more loyality, this is the number one demand of their loved ones. In return for their devotion to you, (and by golly they are devoted), they expect you to defend the values of the pride to the nth degree. Any deviation is a sign of rebellion and must be crushed… Bottom line, the lion is a man-eating beast. It can be bitterly cruel when threatened. You really want these folk on your side for they will fight and defend you until they have spilt their last drop of blood….”

This new Moon falls in Virgo decan 1 which is a totally different creature but is still ruled by the Sun! (and Mercury by triplicity). The energy is still regal but Queenly rather than Kingly.

“These seers usually develop their sensitivity after a period of suffering, dutiful caring and even a broken heart. These folk are good at medicating those who are grieving. They become the opiate for their patients, friends, lovers, children, parents and any neighbour hood strays…”

So as a result of 2000 years of bloodshed and suffering, the human race has through a broken heart, learned to open its heart chakra. It has also individuated and developed an ego. We are all one yes, but we are all unique individuals also. I like to think of the Suns symbol as both a halo and an eye. Mercury has the healing influence and we may go through a stage of self-medicating to get over the trauma when it becomes apparent just how badly we as humans have been abused.

There is both a Yod and learning triangle in the New Moon chart. Attached to the Yod is Venus/ Lilith in tight square to Mars/Saturn. A battle of the sexes? The Saturn/Mars on Zubeneschemali could prove interesting as Robson says with Mars it brings:

Both the Goddesses are greatly empowered by the star Merak in the heart of the great bear. Merak brings command and domination but is also empowering. I think the mix of fiery goddess energy plus quiet caution and sound judgement mean that through conflict, understanding is found and it all ends well and amicably. The Yod points to Uranus Rx on Alpheratz, still awaiting to break free of its change. You can see the very strong theme of the transition at this New Moon. It shows the evolution of humans being of service (Slaves) to the Sovereign to one of being sovereign beings in service tohumanity. This New Moon gives us a glimpse of the future where there shall be sovereignty for all!

So what’s so special about Regulus? He is certainly of our time. He is the X factor and the superstar. The Elvis of the fixed stars. He ranks as ultra-fortunate, the most benefic star in the Universe. Medieval astrologers said it would bring glory, riches and fame to all those born under it, and that it was the “Royall Starre”.

Regulus the fixed star of kings, the heart of the Lion, Part of the Royal Cross in the sky, described in the Book of Revelations as the Lion in the South, one of the Persian Watch stars, leaves Leo, where Regulus has been for 2160 years and moves into Virgo. We can expect Kings to die. We can expect the peasants to assume the power. Workers will become the leaders. As a collective, we are experiencing an empowerment of the servant class and will be developing a new way and understanding of how we look at power over the next 2,160 years as Regulus moves slowly through Virgo at the rate of 1 degree every 72 years.

In5D Addendum: The timing for Regulus entering Virgo is ideal with Pluto in Capricorn until 2023. The energies are ripe for an amazing transformation of consciousness while toppling down the patriarchal system that has brought us war, materialism, greed and ego through various divide and conquer techniques.

[2 articles are presented here on this transformative time. SiNeh~]

New Moon in Virgo – Alchemical Change

When taking a look at the evolutionary cycle of the planets at the moment, we are faced with another impactful internal paradigm shift. This new moon cycle in Virgo holds for us powerful inner healing and inner transformation.

I personally am excited about this one! We are continually shifting and changing inwardly, but every so often we get a shift that takes place which we feel intensely. I personally see this powerful shift having a direct connection to the healing process that is needed after the intense last 3 years of personal inner breakdowns. Up until now that is what has been happening, the structure of our inner reality has been changing. The key to changing the world is recognizing that first change must come from within.

I will break this down for you, and hopefully offer some insights into how to approach this energy pattern.

Virgo New Moon

Ego re-adjustment.

Every new moon cycle reflects to us, on a smaller scale, the intention set in motion of the greater and slower moving planetary cycles of Pluto, Neptune and Uranus.

The theme of this month’s new moon will be about the archetypes of Virgo and the quincunx aspect. From an evolutionary point of view, our journey to this point has been about advancing the awareness of ourselves. From a new direction (Aries) to actualizing (Leo) we have been constructing a pyramid, placing our subjective sense of self (the Leo/Sun) on top. Now, through the Virgo process, we switch the ego from being on top the pyramid to the bottom, by flipping our perspective. From this point of view it creates the awareness and desire to be of benefit or help to a larger whole, rather than just to yourself. This in turn starts the process of spiritual re-alignment and it works like this…

The polarity (opposite) of Virgo is Pisces. These symbols in the zodiac reflect to us how the ego begins the process of re-aligning itself. If Pisces symbolizes the night sky, the vast starry realm, then Virgo reflects the human on the ground, dwarfed by the enormity (at the bottom of the pyramid). This then leads to the process of the Virgo/Quincunx aspect of forcing introspective, self-analytical consciousness. We develop an awareness of lack or imperfection, which can then promote the step-by-step process of self-improvement. This is the ultimate lesson of the archetype Virgo/Quincunx, to empower yourself through self-improvement. It is like the framework of a building which, depending upon how much effort is put into it, can become a hovel or a lovely home.

The Finger of God (Yod)

This planetary alignment is named the Finger of God for a reason. It forces difficult situations upon us so that we are faced with the challenge to rise above them and to evolve the soul. It is asking us now to truly take hold of some transmutation by slowing down (quincunx), accepting aspects of yourself you would like to improve (Virgo) and when embracing your limitations (Scorpio), you ultimately allow yourself to be inwardly transformed. This is essential thinking to this pattern.

The Virgo New Moon brings with it a grounding energy, helping us see things in practical terms. So begin reflecting on your current desires, whatever they might be, then ask yourself how you can improve and make them real. By doing this you enable yourself to be open to new ideas and opportunities. From the point of view in which we are rebuilding a new paradigm, this would be an entirely necessary process.

Another way to look at this pattern is to the see the immense opportunity to heal. Here again we are in the situation in which we are adding to the framework that will eventually support our sense of self. Many of us are looking at the world through new eyes since being awoken. Think of this period of time (Virgo New Moon) as a trial and error period. We are learning to balance ourselves and re orientate to the rising frequency. These symbols reflect the potential for some intense inner alchemical transmutation.

This shift that is taking place is, in my view, going to be just as important as the Cardinal Grand Cross which happened in April 2014. The patterns I am seeing are telling me that there is another piece of the paradigm shift puzzle that is about to fall into place. Please watch the video below for a visual on the chart.

Mercury Enters Libra, 2nd of September

Sharing and connecting.

With the movement of mercury into Libra we are given an opportunity to share our ideas and to connect with others. It’s time to do some networking. Libra is a part of the natural Air trine and implies the natural law of sharing. So the intention with this energy is to expand our perspective and help others do the same. As this is the self-improvement month, take a moment to reflect on how your communication with others effects them. Ask for feedback!

Jupiter Quincunx Pluto (Retrograde)

Transmutation of our philosophy.

Every 6 months or so the symbol Pluto moves in what is called “retrograde” motion. Now this simply means that the intention of our desires comes up for review. We rethink what we desire during this period of time and adjust it. So with Pluto’s connection to Jupiter here, we have the inward self-alignment (quincunx) of our philosophy (Jupiter) relative to our desires. This is a great chance to reflect on what your philosophy is and how it enables you to reach your dreams. Again, this is all in line with the main theme of this new moon… self-improvement.

Venus enters Virgo 5th September

“The value is in the effort”.

In addition to the theme of the new moon, we see another synchronicity taking place in September, as Venus moves into Virgo. The synchronicity here lies in the opportunity to see the value (Venus) in how we can improve things in our lives. Can you see how the universe is adding this layer? Just after the new moon, the effects and awareness will be present and so, by the 5th, it will be time to become aware of the value we are putting into the world; how to be of service and improve.

Sun/Moon in Virgo Oppose Neptune in Pisces

Lastly to round off this exquisite and intricate cosmic dance, we have the sun and moon in opposition to Neptune in Pisces. Here again, the layer of growth comes in aligning your mindset to the totality of creation; to see the connection between you and the infinite universe. The key here is to truly surrender to the project at hand and allow for the water elements to guide you along the path of least resistance. As this shift takes place, recognize there is a higher plan working through us. You are connected to Source and Source is within you. You and Source are connected.

New Moon Mantra

Be heart centered.

As we are faced with things in life that we would rather shy away from, find comfort in knowing that this is all a part of the divine plan. Trust the plan! Flow with it! In the midst of change and crisis it can be difficult to see things with a clear perspective. Instead of focusing on the outer turmoil, turn inwards. Be grounded. Focus on healing yourself. Transform your pain into the strength you can use to help others.

It is time to become a light that helps guide humanity to a new awakened paradigm. It is time to become a part of the solution.

Here’s a second reading of this alignment:

Change means movement. Movement means friction. Only in the frictionless vacuum of a nonexistent abstract world can movement or change occur without that abrasive friction of conflict.Saul Alinsky (1909-72) author and founder of community organizing

The thing that lies at the foundation of positive change, the way I see it, is service to a fellow human being. Lech Walesa (1943- ) Nobel Peace Prize and former Polish leader.

Intensity grows. Transformation abounds. Societal polarity reaches new extremes. Ferguson, Missouri…Ukraine and Russia…Iraq and Syria…Israel and Palestine…China and its neighbors, Ebola virus in West Africa, great drought in California…social unrest in many quarters.. seemingly fill the daily news. Meanwhile, the human voice for social justice and equality grows louder.

These flash points of critical tension point to symptoms of great change and activation now underway around the globe. We stand at the edge of a precipice. Depending on your perspective, one view augurs an Utopian ideal; another perhaps a depressing outcome, and many possibilities in-between. However, the astrological cycles and strong headwinds say “no outcome is certain. No guarantees are available.” For better or worse, our evolving human script is being written as it unfolds. Quite a potent backdrop for this Virgo New Moon and its demand for greater, compassionate service to humanity.

Here’s the Astro 411.

Where:

New Moon at 2° Virgo. Virgo qualities include a focus on your health, precision and discernment, and service to others.

When:

August 25th at 4:13 am Hawaii Time (HST); 7:13 am on the US West Coast, 6:13 pm Universal Time, and on the 26th in Eastern Australia, east to the International Date Line.

Overall theme:

Polarity 101. Bringing to light that which has been suppressed and denied for healing and peaceful resolution.

Significant players:

The meeting of the 16/17′s (see chart on right). At this lunation there are 6 planetary members at the 16/17 degree positions. This includes Mercury in Virgo, Venus in Leo, Mars and Saturn in Scorpio (exact), Chiron in Pisces and Uranus in Aries. That’s quite a bit of angular focus amping this lunation. From these headwinds, it seems the next 2 weeks have the potential to be flat out intense. Better to know than not to know; better to be aware than unaware. Fortune favors the prepared.

Energy forms created:

The 16/17 members create a multitude of aspects. Rather than getting lost in the geometry, suffice to say multiple conversations now prevail on the “right way to proceed”. This type of debate requires consensus, however, the players involved, especially Mars and Saturn, rarely see eye-to-eye. In Scorpio, there is a strong impetus to go deep and reveal the darkness. Further, Venus in Leo forms a strong square to this Mars and Saturn combination. This can fuel any conversation with ego and a desire to be right rather than grace and compassion.

Also, Mars and Saturn are exactly conjunct at this New Moon which makes the fixed aspect of Scorpio that much more entrenched. Change will not come easily under this vibration. Near the red star Antares (rival of Mars), the likelihood for conflict increases.

Here’s the new Moon Chart:

Synopsis:

Power struggles underscore this lunation, especially given its fixed nature. The square of Venus in Leo (2) to Mars and Saturn in Scorpio (1) epitomizes the word “intense”. Virgo New Moon calls for greater service to humanity, however, consensus requires a very different approach than conventional diplomacy.

There is a curious little history here between us. On March 8th 2011, 3 days before Fukushima, I published a post with Deep insights from CA, where she said, clearly, that on March 11th everything will change, nothing will be the same. The heavens almost spoke it.

After putting up her writing, I felt called to reach for The Book of Five Rings, and quote a Samurai master’s poem to his pupil.

And in it’s typical stark beauty, the poem reads exactly like a nuclear winter approaching.

We felt the ripple in the matrix…. I kid you not, you can check it out here:

So, back to now. Sure many of you are well aware of the super tight planetary configurations in the skies as I type. There are just recently passed grand crosses, of a whole lot of deep and fighting planetary energy opposed to each other, in her words, demanding resolution.

I will leave the details of what else to her below.

But please also see how multi-contextual signals are being flashed at us from every angle.

Notable events:

1) MH Flight 370…..true mystery, esoterically loaded, conspiratorially charged and for some reason, relentlessly being searched for. Why all the global hoopla, for so long? That many people are dying in Yemen and the Congo and Iraq and Syria and Libya and Afghanistaan every day. Watch for this to play some big role in times upcoming.

2) The Mount Everest Avalanche disaster, that killed many Sherpas (16)….at near the highest point in the world. Top of the world, 16 rather senseless deaths. Called the deadliest such accident EVER.

A lucky survivor, via AOL:

3) The Korean Ferry disaster. Down at the bottom of the ocean. From the top of the world to the bottom of the ocean almost simultaneously…The sewol sank with hundreds feared dead on April 16th, the Everest avalanche on the 18th of April.

4) The war drums beginning to beat louder and louder all around Ukraine.

Add to that one of the most active volcano months in history.

Yesterday, huge flash floods in Afghanistan, hundreds dead/missing.

It’s good to get the higher picture at such times.

There is also tremendous power available to the individual and the collective at such times. This is when mountains crumble and oceans dis-appear down vortices. Such energy can be guided to our own, leaping upward propelled growth. Individually and thus collectively.

This time, the fabric is stretched, the veils are thin and parting…..

The apo-calypse is on sisters and brothers….pre-pare to play a larger role. Learn to wield your medium of choice with inner-mastery….we will all be needing you to be that way.

The Karmic Tools Weekly Forecast covers the current planetary transits which affect people in different ways and to various degrees of intensity.

Take notice when it is a Personal planet (Sun / Moon / Mercury / Venus / Mars) interacting with a Social (Jupiter/Saturn) or Collective planet (Uranus / Neptune/Pluto). And pay extremely close attention when it is a Social planet interacting with a Collective planet because that means something *big* is brewing that will move large groups of people along their evolutionary paths. Tuning in to the energy and rhythm of the planets can serve as a useful *guide* as you move along your Individual Path. It also helps to understand your place within the context of the larger Social & Collective Story. Below, you will find out how these energies tend to manifest, as well as guidance and direction.

*NOTE*There are some days when there are NO CONTACTS (besides the Moon), please note that there are no missing entries, we just list the actual Activations of each week + the day they happen.

Weekly Forecast: April 20 – 26, 2014

4/20 ~ Jupiter (faith/belief) ~square~ Uranus (freedom/liberation):

(3 of 3: 8.21.2013 ~ 2/26 ~ 4/20)

Expansion & Liberation coming together can shock the system, no doubt, and this activation will push you out of your comfort zone, whether your life is changing for better or worse. It’s time to gather all the knowledge & earned wisdom of the last 3-years and apply it to see what works and what doesn’t. Experiment with new ideas, expand on anything solid and explore new realms of possibility, on every level ~ physical, emotional, spiritual & mental. That said, the hallmarks of this activation initially are: impatience, restlessness & opposition from those who were once supportive (when YOU change, the people around you have to change or go away, if only temporarily to evolve on their own). If you have postponed major decisions, this could be the Universe cracking the whip, as it were, when change becomes your ONLY option and stepping in to the Unknown is the only “open pathway”. Generally, when Uranus is involved there is a “sudden awakening”, the human challenge is that once the crisis is past or the initial shock has worn off, people tend to fall back ‘asleep’. The key is to use the square to help do some of the heavy lifting for you, since change is being facilitated regardless (through varying degrees of friction & discomfort). Whatever you want to change, add it to the energetic mix of *now* and recognize what used to be true is no longer true or, conversely, what was NOT true in recent/long past is suddenly true now. While this energy can feel very much like you just picked the Wheel of Fortune card in the Tarot, it doesn’t have to be a negative thing necessarily, but an opportunity to shed the skin of an old belief so that a new YOU can emerge!

We get 3-chances to work this *Mojo* during 2013-14. First today (8/21) with Uranus Retrograde (liberation/breakthrough), then with Jupiter Retrograde, when we get to edit the current Story (2.26.2014) and finally, with both Direct and moving toward creating New Paths (4.20.2014) based on Higher Truth and 12-15 years of learning and experience (1997-now).

{Note} Jupiter is a 12-year Cycle that moves at 3-year increments. The last Cycle was activated in 1997, in Aquarius. The current Cycle was activated in 2010 on the Cusp of Pisces/Aries and the next one in 2024 will be in Taurus. Any square is a test to grow, out of comfort zone, in to new territory. Presently, the test is between Cancer (what we contain, nurture & protect) and Aries (independence, courage & noble cause); between what we believe and what needs to change; between the past and the future. Another thing to consider or frame of reference would be 2000 as the first test of the New Truth & Story activated in 1997. Similarly, we initiated a New Truth & Story during 2010-2011 which is now being tested, in some major way, to evolve. Squares bring challenges, choices and generally, crossroads that take you in new directions, learning all the way. Keep in mind that cycles repeat, however, YOU and the support around you, changes with the seasons.

4/20 ~ Jupiter (expansion) ~oppose~ Pluto (power):

(3 of 3: 8.7.2013 ~ 1/31 & 4/20.2014)

These two Gods, Jupiter & Pluto, are potent indeed! This is about recognizing the inherent power of your perceptions and what you believe or claim as Truth. How much of it is consciously co-created and grows & expands with you … and how much is influenced by the depths of your subconscious? Jupiter moves the Story of your life along and contact with Pluto indicates an utter transformation, no half-way. If you’ve been integrity about the Story you’re telling, then this is a mid-point of sorts that allows you to see what is completely done and where you can course-correct around any deep revelations. Because Jupiter indicates success and luck, it can bring rewards for deep dedication and with that, more power that you will need to consciously ground (repeatedly) or it could overwhelm you completely. Keeping in mind any push-pull energies around power in general. If you are making self-centered choices, things could back-fire in unpleasant ways. However, if you are making choices that take in to consideration the relative Truth to others or larger Story, then much progress can be made because it enlarges the Circle, which brings in resources and energy from those who share a common vision. Think Higher and Dig Deeper! Reconsider your definitions of wealth & power.

{Note} This activation happens every 12-years, however, the Sign Energy & Lesson changes. The last one in 2000-2001 was in Gemini/Sag, but during 2013-14, it is Cancer/Capricorn. In any opposition, the goal is to find, maintain & strengthen the center-point. However, that usually entails first swinging from one extreme to another and lots of practice calibrating a natural balance that you can sustain long enough to be effective. In this case, the energetic theme is the Masculine/Feminine ~ Mother/Father ~ Home/Work ~ Public/Private ~ Personal/Global ~ which is ALL up for a recalibration within and around us. What is the Truth & Story? How must we completely change where the fundamentals are concerned?

These two may need a little qualifying first. Uranus has an 84-year cycle, comprised of 7-year increments (each Sign), breaking in to social cycles of 21 years (square) and 42 years (opposition) as well. Pluto has a 248-year cycle, and spends 11-33 years in each Sign, which comes in waves apparently, but reminds us that “Transformation takes as long as it takes!” Uranus is considered the *Change Agent* ~ while Pluto represents the ultimate (and permanent) transformation. However, they operate considerably differently. Pluto works very slowly, over long periods of time and behind the scenes, exerting its strongest influence from the hidden realms. Uranus works with lightning speed, change in an instant, sudden illumination and life is never the same again. They are getting together in a 90-degree angle (square), which will ultimately build something, but not before the complete destruction of that which is not worthy (ending the old way), the clearing and purifying of space for new growth (preparation) and restructuring from the ground UP (rebirthing/rebuilding). Squares push us *out of comfort zone, in to new territory* ~ they help us *build* something stable and useful through the trials and adjustments, processes and sacrifices made, especially when they are actively engaged like this … which is rare. (Uranus Squares Pluto every 50-80 years.)

On a personal level, this is a revolutionary time to be alive and all life is affected one way or another when these Collective shifts happen. Even though both of these planets are considered Collective planets, they will affect individuals with planets active in these Signs. So this go-round is primarily affecting Cancer/Capricorn and Aries/Libra energies, though no one is exempt. (You can look to the Signs for the themes and lessons.) There is a tremendous pressure from the Social and Collective realms to adjust on personal and Individual levels. This activation forces change, seemingly from outer, uncontrollable influences, but it should not be a surprise. It usually changes something you’ve known needed changing, but resisted and postponed. Essentially, Pluto reveals that which is already dead, done and over but very often we avoid these deeper, darker realms. “Suddenly” (Uranus) there is a catalyst (activation) for change and there is no going back! We *LIVE* during the current *Activation* which means we can set an intention to co-create. We can set an intention for ourselves and 7 Generations to come, if we like. Allow the old paradigms to drift in to your memory and focus on the incoming, new paradigm. Connect with the new life and new structures rising from the ashes, like the Phoenix reborn, of all that’s gone before. It is not necessarily “good” or “bad” but it’s definitely “over” so don’t waste precious resources looking back.

Connect to your Aries Instincts (independence) and Libra Circle (community) and anchor your fundamentals, how you provide for your Self and your family (Cancer) as well as, how you contribute to Society (Capricorn). If you do that to the best of your ability, you should come out of this 4+ year *PROCESS* on completely new ground, stabilized in the outer realms and more secure in your Center to navigate, come what may. There will be two Activations in 2012, 2013 and 2014 with the 7th and final one in 2015.

NOTE: The last time Uranus Squared Pluto was 1932-1934 with Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Cancer. The next time Uranus Squares Pluto will be 2073-2074 with Uranus in Capricorn and Pluto in Aries, the exact opposite of what we are experiencing *NOW*!

DATES OF ACTIVATIONS:

June 24, 2012 ~ 8° ~ Uranus in Aries/Pluto in Capricorn

September 19, 2012 ~ 6° ~ Uranus in Aries/Pluto in Capricorn

May 20, 2013 ~ 11° ~ Uranus in Aries/Pluto in Capricorn

November 1, 2013 ~ 9° ~ Uranus in Aries/Pluto in Capricorn

April 21, 2014 ~ 13° ~ Uranus in Aries/Pluto in Capricorn

December 15, 2014 ~ 12° ~ Uranus in Aries/Pluto in Capricorn

March 17, 2015 ~ 15° ~ Uranus in Aries/Pluto in Capricorn

4/22 ~ Mars (passion) ~square~ Jupiter (enthusiasm):

This energy can be expressed one of two ways (like most) – you can over-extend your Self and your resources being overly optimistic without actually doing any planning or work, relying on luck alone and unfortunately, this expression will basically make you pay double (in more ways than one) sooner or later. The better way to express this energy is to think of what you are DOING today as the benefit to you in the future. You have access to foresight, so use it to foresee what your ultimate goal is and what steps you can take today to make that happen. Focus on what can be, rather than what is right now. You also have access to increased energy and optimism, which can be built on but not if you overdo it, then you defeat the whole purpose. Calculated risk is okay – impulsive reactions – NOT. This is also the energy of when things are good – they are very good but when they are bad, they are terrible! So keep it positive, stay focused and balance your input with your output – mentally and physically.

4/23 ~ Mars (energy) ~oppose~ Uranus (radical shift):

This is a mixed blessing. On one hand, this energy can bring on impulsive reactionary behavior. You can have sudden outbursts of anger or frustration with a strong need to be ‘free’ from whatever you are perceiving as holding you back (person or circumstance). The best use of this energy is really consciously directing your energy to free yourself from any restrictions – self-imposed or otherwise. This is a time when you will be extremely motivated to do whatever it takes to live freely (by your own definition). Do not suppress this energy as that will only make it blow up in your face at a most inconvenient time. Use this activation to check yourself and determine what you deeply desire, what your definition of freedom is and what you are willing to do to live a more authentic life.

4/23 ~ Mars (lower will) ~square~ Pluto (Higher will):

This is a test of what you are made of on the deepest core level and will require surrender as well as focus. This energy challenges you to evolve and will make you want to push through all obstacles but you must be careful not to be so aggressive that you are stepping on anyone to get where you’re going. This is a potent energy that can facilitate major transformation in your life if you know who you are, what you want and what you are willing to sacrifice to get there – that includes parts of your Self that need to shift to be more effective. This energy brings power struggles, either within or without, so be mindful because this energy is affecting everyone at this time. This is the time to tie up any loose ends if you are close to beginning anew. If you do not finish what you already have in the works, it may get in the way of things you want to do in the future.

4/25 ~ Venus (love & money) ~trine~ Saturn (stability):

This energy tends to make you very realistic about your relationships and is, therefore, a good time to talk about any recent challenges or future plans. Venus is the energy of love and money, so you will also be objective and somewhat conservative where both your relationships and finances are concerned. With this interaction with Saturn, I would suggest outlining a reasonable financial goals for the next 3 – 6 – 12 months. Relationships started under this influence should be fairly stable and more practical than passionate, but solid nonetheless.

4/25 ~ Mercury (expression) ~conjunct~ Sun (core-Self):

This energy will compel you to express yourself on many levels. Communication will be a focus, just make sure it is reciprocated. You will have access to some powerful energy that can (and probably will) make quite an impression on others (if you need to). This is a good time to travel if possible too. However, if not physically, than mentally and certainly within your own area, you will take in more information per square inch than usual. Pay attention! You may even gain the much deserved recognition from others you have worked so hard for.

Not since this New Millennium began has there been a convergence of so many astrological alignments and geopolitical circumstances which will compel massive global changes. With the numerous and extraordinary astrological events taking place in April, the oft-predicted destiny of HUGE Earth changes can no longer be denied. It is now a matter of when , not if. The simple physics that undergird the political, economic and social spheres of life now dictate that real planetary transformation is on the way.

Surely the spate of earthquakes and volcanoes has reflected the renewed will of Mother Earth to start rocking’ and rollin’. There has never been such a concentration of major earthquakes as we have already seen this year. The Ring of Fire in particular has awakened from its slumber. And there is every indication, according numerous volcanologists and seismologists around the world, that such seismic and volcanic activity will only intensify.

As the current Solar Maximum continues to unfold, such earth movements are all but guaranteed. Unfortunately, few within the scientific establishment have acknowledged the true correlations between solar activity and cataclysmic earth movements. Perhaps 2014 will remove all remaining doubt as the anticipated earth cataclysms begin in earnest. Simply put, Mother Earth will be heard, and not just paid lip service as is so often done on the annual April 22nd EARTH DAY.

Regardless of what the immediate future holds in store for the world, April 2014 is set to release a variety of astrological triggers having far-reaching ramifications and great consequences. Even an armchair astrologer can plainly see the celestial setup which will generate corresponding events everywhere across the planet, not just throughout the entire Middle East, the Ukraine, Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Thailand, Myanmar, the Central African Republic, Sudan, Libya, Chad, etc., which we see on the evening news.

Of course, the Global Economic and Financial Control Matrix is especially vulnerable to the predicted calamities throughout that and other interconnected realms. This is where the raw financial and economics physics graphically illustrate fast approaching breaking points. The blatant suppression of the price of gold is a stark example of where the market controllers can no longer maintain the false illusion of order. All the forces of the marketplace — both real and artificially fabricated — are now working at cross purposes with such intensity that “the man behind the curtain” will be exposed once and for all.

It is now April and the most intense and consequential astrology of the year will occur during the second half of this month. It is not just the various alignments, squares, eclipses, transits and retrogrades involving the most volatile planets and significant luminaries; it’s the overlapping of these celestial events within an extraordinarily tight time frame and at this critical junction point which truly matters. It’s as though the Universe chose April month to show us that astrology REALLY works. If you’ve balked at its awesome power of prediction, prognostication and prophecy in the past, you won’t anymore.

Here’s just a glimpse of what April has in store for every resident of Planet Earth. Take a close look now, as you may not have the time to later while the “War of the Titans” starts to cranks up into a heavenly crescendo. It’s already begun to break out into the open, but most are too preoccupied with life and distracted by the MSM to take notice of the expanding battleground all around them. However, for the first time in the modern era there are a good number of earthly inhabitants who are aware of the true status of things. Each one of them is challenged to holding space and biding time for the rest of humanity, most of whom very much need this crucial support at this defining moment of human history.

APRIL: The Month of ARIES*

*“Under the sidereal zodiac, the sun currently transits Aries from 15 April to 15 May.
Under the tropical zodiac, the Sun transits this constellation between March 21 and April 20 each year.” (Source: Wikipedia – Aries astrology)

Although the preceding list of major astrological events commences on April 15, some of their effects have already been felt quite intensely since December of 2013. In fact an accurate understanding of these heavenly happenings clearly illustrates what many of us have been experiencing in our lives, especially the buildup of tension both within and without. Who among us has not witnessed the extremely “interesting times” that have been manifesting across the planet 24/7?!

Notice how the four days of “Supreme Intensity” are bookended by a full lunar eclipse and annular solar eclipse. There’s actually a lot of other things to notice, but the arcana of planetary astrology analysis is far beyond the scope of this essay. However, even the uninitiated ought to be able to glean from all the “peaks”, “squares” and “opposes” that something quite serious is taking place in the skies above us. And since we all know that “As in Heaven, so on Earth”, and “As above, so below”, there must be something really big that’s getting ready to pop on this little clod of rotating earth.

Here’s how one well respected astrologer put it:

It’s very important to note that such monumental changes can only occur when there is sufficient momentum of the collective consciousness moving in the right direction. A critical mass of souls, whose expanded awareness has coalesced around these epochal changes, is what will make them happen. Therefore, even though we expect big things to happen on the outside, it is always on the inside where the real work is getting done. Sometimes we know it, sometimes we don’t. It all depends on our unique areas of need. As long as we avail ourselves to the upcoming transformational process — which will surely come — in earnest and with resolve, all heaven can, and will, break loose.

Total Lunar Eclipse
April 15, 2014

By Carol Ann Ciocco

[Excerpt] In Buddhist tradition, eclipses are observed as high holy days because they amplify our prayers and intent exponentially. What we hold in our thought and intention at these times reverberates throughout time, space and all dimensions.

We are entering into a time of powerful energies next week: an Eclipse Portal that has a celestial Cross right smack dab in the middle of it.

NOTE: This newsletter will focus on the Total Lunar Eclipse on April 15…

The core of the vortex opens with the Full Moon on April 15, which is a Total Lunar Eclipse. And it closes on Tuesday April 29 with the New Moon, a partial Ring of Fire (Annular) Solar Eclipse. In between, on April 20-21 (Easter occurs on April 20), we have a Cross in the sky with placeholders in key energy points for manifestation.

The *message, energy, breakthrough, breakdown, insight, shift, light blast* etc. that the current vortex offers you will most likely surface by April 29 (the second eclipse) and continuing through mid-May, when the Eclipse Portal fully closes.

A deeper picture will emerge, however, as we enter into another Total Lunar Eclipse on October 8, 2014, with the total ‘download’ completing in September 2015. This is because next week’s eclipse is part of a group of 4 eclipses, known as a Tetrad. It kicks off a ricochet of energy, fueled by the Cross of Creation…

Focus

What to focus on if you are overwhelmed or want to glide through this month easily:

FIRST: Your INTENT is what matters now. Never mind the details or the ‘how’. If you do nothing else, or read no further, simply set your intent for the changes you would like to make in your life. The key is to focus on the changes THAT WILL HELP YOU TO BETTER SERVE HUMANITY AND EARTH. And allow the river to carry you forward to the perfect outcome. Our path of service is also the path to joy, meaning, fulfillment and the taking on of more light (enlightenment).

ALSO, please be gentle with yourself right now. During lunar eclipses, emotions heighten, with an intensified lack of clarity, transparency or cause. Every Total Lunar Eclipses is a FULL MOON, and the Full Moon has a tidal pull on our watery or emotional level. The Total Lunar Eclipse tends to bring our focus into the body and into our subconscious. Deep emotions are being stirred and revealed…

Total Lunar Eclipse – Red or Orange

On Tuesday April 15 at 3:42 am EDT, we will have a Full Moon which is a Total Lunar Eclipse (TLE). It will occur at 25 degrees of Aries (Sun) / 25 degrees of Libra (Moon).

During a Total Lunar Eclipse, the Earth’s shadow falls upon the Moon, and as this occurs the Moon’s color may change to a striking red. This is why some call the TLE a ‘blood moon.’ This does not mean it’s ominous, and it is not apocalyptic, as many have been speculating on the internet.

Dark eclipses are caused by volcanic gas and dust which filters and blocks much of the Sun’s light from reaching the Moon. In fact, although a TLE can be red, it is not possible to predict the color or the exact brightness of it. Sometimes it is orange, sometimes it’s a (disappointing!) dull brown. On a few rare occasions a Total Lunar Eclipse has taken on a turquoise hue; again, depending on the atmospheric conditions of earth.

Astronomers are predicting that the April 15 TLE will be typical, ie orange or red: “Although Indonesia’s Mount Kelud has undergone recent volcanic eruptions, it has not produced enough dust and gas to significantly darken April’s eclipse. Expect the total phase to appear bright red or orange, which is typical.” – Fred Espenak http://ow.ly/vGcFY

It’s always interesting to find out exactly what color the Total Lunar Eclipse ends up displaying. The color it reveals to us is a part of not only the mystery and beauty of a TLE experience, but also part of the metaphysical experience and the energetic *message* if we choose to tune into it.

Consider that the light you see on the Moon during a Total Lunar Eclipse comes from all the sunrises and sunsets that are occurring around Earth at the time. Our atmosphere scatters and refracts (bends) the sunlight that grazes the rim of our globe, sending some of it into Earth’s shadow.

And if you were an astronaut standing on the Moon, you would see a multi-colored Total Solar Eclipse – the Sun covered up by a dark Earth ringed all around with a thin, brilliant band of sunset- and sunrise-colored light. This video from Kurdistan Planetarium provides an animation of of what the April 15 TLE would look like from the perspective of the MOON (see 2:04):

Timeline and Viewing

This Total Lunar Eclipse will be visible over most of North America and Hawaii. South America will also see this eclipse. Observers in the western Pacific will miss the first half of the eclipse because it occurs before moonrise. Likewise most of Europe and Africa experience moonset just as the eclipse begins. None of the eclipse is visible from north/east Europe, eastern Africa, the Middle East or Central Asia. (NASA)

A Total Lunar Eclipse engages us and invites us in to the experience i.e. it is always safe to look at the Moon during a Total Lunar Eclipse (in contrast with a Total Solar Eclipse, when it is Never safe to look at the Sun)

The entire eclipse experience lasts approximately 3.5 hours. It begins at 1:58 am EDT on April 15 (9:58 pm PDT on April 14). And the entire event will end at 5:33 am EDT (2:33 am PDT).

If you are in the viewing area (and weather permitting!) and want to experience the full event, plan to take a nap earlier in the day/evening, grab some snacks and a blanket, and go outside just before 2 a.m. You will see the Moon just a little west of due south.

Here’s some terrific information you won’t come across as well strung together and condensed as this. The remarkable Santos Bonacci has many youtube clips to enjoy and learn from. That he can reel off such in depth, perceptive and detailed information is a real testament to the power of researching with a passion for Truth in full-on conscious awareness. It’s there for the having, and people like this give us all a head start in the many amazing fields of knowledge we need to become familiar with in order to better understand and heal the world we’re living in. – Zen

An asteroid the size of three football fields is set to make a close brush of Earth on Monday (Feb. 17), and you can watch the flyby in a live webcast.

Near-Earth asteroid 2000 EM26 poses no threat of actually hitting the planet, but the online Slooh Space Camera will track the asteroid as it passes by Earth on Monday. The live Slooh webcast will start at 9 p.m. EST (0200 Feb. 18 GMT), and you can also watch the webcast directly through the Slooh website.

January's video is another surprisingly supportive chart. It is supportive to a surprising degree and in an unexpected way. It creates a hurdle in our individual and collective lives, but it offers a novel and truly transformative way to get over this hurdle, one that moves us all toward a new paradigm.

Kate of Gaia (a nameless man) and Heather Tucci-Jaraf have released their declarations of freedom paperwork. "One Stop Truth" and "The Will and The Word of I" are the respective names of these treatises of liberation. [http://kateofgaia.files.wordpress.com... & http://www.scribd.com/doc/180894065/W...] As these revelations are made known, entering into the collective consciousness of humanity, some things are obvious: Lights are beaming into the darkness, Truth is toppling the lies and Love is healing the wounds of human ignorance. As we recognize how we have been enslaved, our chains begin to dissolve as if by magic. Of course it is just the process of the evolution of our consciousness kicking into high gear. Without putting a date on it, I expect worldwide celebrations as opposites unite, embracing the paradoxes of the mystery of destiny. The long awaited Jubilee is on our doorstep. This is our awakening, our shift into the Golden Age.

The Karmic Tools Weekly Forecast covers the current planetary transits which affect people in different ways and to various degrees of intensity. Take notice when it is a Personal planet (Sun / Moon / Mercury / Venus / Mars) interacting with a Social (Jupiter/Saturn) or Collective planet (Uranus / Neptune/Pluto). And pay extremely close attention when it is a Social planet interacting with a Collective planet because that means something *big* is brewing that will move large groups of people along their evolutionary paths. Tuning in to the energy and rhythm of the planets can serve as a useful *guide* as you move along your Individual Path. It also helps to understand your place within the context of the larger Social & Collective Story. Below, you will find out how these energies tend to manifest, as well as guidance and direction.

*NOTE*There are some days when there are NO CONTACTS (besides the Moon), please note that there are no missing entries, we just list the actual Activations of each week + the day they happen.

Weekly Forecast: October 27 – November 2, 2013

This energy is excellent for any important project that requires your undivided attention. If you’ve got a vision and have already outlined how to manifest it, now is the time to really fill in the blanks – flesh it out – bring it to life! Do the work! If you do not channel this energy toward patiently and methodically taking the steps (in order) to get to the next level, then it manifest in frustration that you are not doing what you know in your heart you’re supposed to be doing at this time. It leads to negative thinking and self-sabotage. A better expression would be not think of the things that can go wrong, entertain the possibility that every door opens and all paths lead to your goal.

10/31 ~ Mars (energy) ~trine~ Pluto (transformation):

This is an active, transformative energy that will help you to change your life in a healthy, positive way. You may be especially focused on what needs to be DONE in your life at this time. You will want to take action and the Universe supports that decision, as long as it is righteous and not totally self-serving. This is a good time to get moving, take action regarding your long term goals – and you will be able to create momentum. You may realize some of your recent actions or choices do not necessarily support your deepest drives or desires. You must align within and without. Be creative ~ be brave!

This is a healthy selfish energy. Do not hold back this week. If you have a goal you have been working diligently toward, then this is the time that may attract the assistance you need from the Universe. This is definitely a “work” energy, however, it brings with it the caveat that it is best if you work alone on something important to you. No one else is (or ever will be) as dedicated to your goal as YOU will be, nor should you expect them to. You are connected to the extra energy it takes to push your goals to the next level bringing you a modicum of a sense of accomplishment while outlining the next tasks to be done.

Opportunities present themselves all the time – be ready!! If you are given the opportunity to make a presentation, go for it! Your enthusiasm will be unmatched and that’s what people respond to. Don’t choose this time to be “shy” or doubt that you’re ready – you ARE ready … otherwise you wouldn’t be here!! My current screen saver says “At the moment of COMMITMENT – the Universe conspires to assist you!” Are you committed? How committed are you?

11/1 ~ Mercury (expression) ~conjunct~ Sun (core-Self):

This energy will compel you to express yourself on many levels. Communication will be a focus, just make sure it is reciprocated. You will have access to some powerful energy that can (and probably will) make quite an impression on others (if you need to). This is a good time to travel if possible too. However, if not physically, than mentally and certainly within your own area, you will take in more information per square inch than usual. Pay attention! You may even gain the much deserved recognition from others you have worked so hard for.

These two may need a little qualifying first. Uranus has an 84-year cycle, comprised of 7-year increments (each Sign), breaking in to social cycles of 21 years (square) and 42 years (opposition) as well. Pluto has a 248-year cycle, and spends 11-33 years in each Sign, which comes in waves apparently, but reminds us that “Transformation takes as long as it takes!” Uranus is considered the *Change Agent* ~ while Pluto represents the ultimate (and permanent) transformation.

However, they operate considerably differently. Pluto works very slowly, over long periods of time and behind the scenes, exerting its strongest influence from the hidden realms. Uranus works with lightning speed, change in an instant, sudden illumination and life is never the same again. They are getting together in a 90-degree angle (square), which will ultimately build something, but not before the complete destruction of that which is not worthy (ending the old way), the clearing and purifying of space for new growth (preparation) and restructuring from the ground UP (rebirthing/rebuilding).

Squares push us *out of comfort zone, in to new territory* ~ they help us *build* something stable and useful through the trials and adjustments, processes and sacrifices made, especially when they are actively engaged like this … which is rare. (Uranus Squares Pluto every 50-80 years.)

On a personal level, this is a revolutionary time to be alive and all life is affected one way or another when these Collective shifts happen. Even though both of these planets are considered Collective planets, they will affect individuals with planets active in these Signs. So this go-round is primarily affecting Cancer/Capricorn and Aries/Libra energies, though no one is exempt. (You can look to the Signs for the themes and lessons).

There is a tremendous pressure from the Social and Collective realms to adjust on personal and Individual levels. This activation forces change, seemingly from outer, uncontrollable influences, but it should not be a surprise. It usually changes something you’ve known needed changing, but resisted and postponed. Essentially, Pluto reveals that which is already dead, done and over but very often we avoid these deeper, darker realms. “Suddenly” (Uranus) there is a catalyst (activation) for change and there is no going back! We *LIVE* during the current *Activation* which means we can set an intention to co-create. We can set an intention for ourselves and 7 Generations to come, if we like. Allow the old paradigms to drift in to your memory and focus on the incoming, new paradigm.

Connect with the new life and new structures rising from the ashes, like the Phoenix reborn, of all that’s gone before. It is not necessarily “good” or “bad” but it’s definitely “over” so don’t waste precious resources looking back. Connect to your Aries Instincts (independence) and Libra Circle (community) and anchor your fundamentals, how you provide for your Self and your family (Cancer) as well as, how you contribute to Society (Capricorn). If you do that to the best of your ability, you should come out of this 4+ year *PROCESS* on completely new ground, stabilized in the outer realms and more secure in your Center to navigate, come what may. There will be two Activations in 2012, 2013 and 2014 with the 7th and final one in 2015.
